Summary
Works in ArcMap (version 9) to copy and paste features between two different datasets. Similiar to
the ArcInfo Workstation "put" command for ArcEdit. Attributes are copied as well if field names match and fields do need to be in the same order. Features will only copy to datasets in which the shape type is the same. The source dataset (Copy From Dataset) can be any support ESRI vector file format. The destination dataset (Paste Dataset) is limited to shapefiles and feature classes in a personal geodatabase.
Updated 20041020 to update spatial indexes for the Paste Dataset.
